DO NOT see this "doctor". Told my 18 years daughter that she had a tumor, will probaly go blind soon and needs to buy a life insurance policy asap. He even sent her home with life insurance paperwork!!! All of this based on her saying she sometimes has floaters in her vision and gets headaches. NO testing, just gives her a death sentence, based on nothing. He is neglent and reckless. Terrfitying situation for a young student to hear. Devestating to have that in her head when alone at college. SHAME on him!!!!

Dr. Run Yu describes himself as an expert on Pheochromocytomas. His mismanagement and incorrect advice proved to be very dangerous to me. He claims to be a statistical expert yet his probabilities for tumor changed from 99 plus percent to 0% and back to 50%. He recommended very serious and unnecessary testing which he claimed was evidence based but then completely reversed his recommendations. When I was able to find another true expert the risks of his incorrect advice became evident. His lack of knowledge itself is dangerous but his arrogance and belief that he is infallible is far more dangerous. If you have seen him get another opinion. If you have not see somebody else!!!
